Defence Minister Arun Jaitley released a coffee table book on Ganga Avahan, a 2,800 km exploratory open-water swim expedition on the Ganga river. The book - "Ganga Avahan: The Epic Tale of a Historic Swim", is on the first-ever human effort to swim down the entire stretch of the river. It is also the longest ever social campaign undertaken through an adventure sporting activity for the Swachh Bharat Mission, Clean Ganga project and Beti Bachao Beti Padhao initiative.
